John Broderick Dies of Injuries Re- ceived at the Hands of an Enraged Jailbird. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, April 7. The death of John Broderick, which oc curred at the Recelving Hospital to-night adds another murder to the long record of crime in Alameda Count. His slayer occupies a cell at the City Prison. Broderick was found lying on the pave- ment on Linden street, near Seventh, in an unconscious condition last Sunday night by Officer Frank Lynch. At the Receiving Hospital it was found that his skull was fractured. For a brief period the injured man regained consciousness and stated that a_ colored man named Frank Jackson had knocked him down and kicked him in the head. He told the suthorities allant could be found. arrested and when brought face to face with Broderick the latter identified him as the man who had uited him. Broderick sald the trou- arose over the fact that he called the colored man an ex-convict. Jackson was immediately taken to the City Prison, where he has since been de- tained, awaiting the result of his vic- tim’'s injuries. To-morrow Jackson will probably be charged with murder. He s an ex-convict, whose picture has a lace in the rogues’ gallery at the City rison. Broderick’s remains have been removed to the Morgue, where Coroner Mehrmann will hold an inquest to-morrow night. An autopsy will also ve held.

Letter-Carrier Littler’'s Wild Ride ‘Which Nearly Cost Him His Life. OAKLAND, April 7.—Charles Littler, one of tne best-known mail carriers in the service, was thrown from his buggy &nd nearly killed to-day. Littler was go- ing his round in Piedmont and was driv ing along Hamilton place, when part of the harness proke. The effect of the ac- cident was to startle the horse and it ran off at a break-neck pace, headed for Lake Merritt. The harness continued to part and Littler hung on to the reins, hopin, that the animal would run into the mu and be brought to a standstill. An electric car was going the same way and every effort was made to catch up with the frightened animal, in the hope of heading it off. The runaway and the car raced for several hundred yards. After a mad contest the last trace parted and Littler was thrown into the air fully ten feet. the car track just as the car had passea. Littler's head ‘was cut, one knee was in. jured and he was almost unconsclous when picked up and put aboard a car which speeded away for surgical ald. He was taken to his home, and unless thers be some unexpected developments he will recover. —_———— TWO RESTRAINING ORDERS. Plaintiffs in Divorce Suits Guard Their Interests Well.

The ladies of the Unitarian | church, in direct opposition to the views expressed by thelr brothers of Christ Church, will stand sponsors for a living plcture entertainment. Not only will it be given for the benefit of the church, but the living bronze statuary will be ex- hibited in the auditorium of the house of ‘worship. St. Agnes Guild of Christ Church had such a show planned, but F. E.

The ladies will not only champion the cause of the artists of tights and bronze | paint, but are determined to make the | affalr the swellest social function ever given in the town.

COUNTY CLERK JORDAN TAKES A HAND IN THE FIGHT. | Interest Centers on the Contest for City Marshal and School Directors. Alameda Office San Francisco Call, 1428 Park street, April 7. The closing days of the city campaign are being marked by some of the bitter- | est fighting and most peculiar political | methods to which the voters of this city have ever been subjected. The election will be held next Monday, and the can- didates are taking advantage of every | intervening minute to line up their forces and round up the voters. The city has been flooded with cam- palgn circulars, some of tfiem decent and legitimate, others scurrilous and with- | out sponsors. Interest Is centered on | the fight for City Marshal and members of the Board of Education. For the Marshalehip there are three candidates— John Conrad, the incumbent. who is an independent ~candidate; Willlam Gunn, a_member of the police’ force, nominee of the Non-Partisan party, and George MacRae, a young detective, who has the indorsement of the Municipal League. For a tlme it was the general opinion that Conrad would defeat the regular nominees, but the distribution yesterday of an anonymous circular making a libel- ous attack on his opponents turned the tide of public favor against him, and the fight now appears to be between Gunn and MacRea. The School Board fight Is attracting the greatest attention. The Non-Partisans are combating for the retention in office | of the present trustees.

The Board of Lady Managers of Fablola Hospital decided at a meeting held to-day to accept T. H. Willlams' offer of a benefit day at the racetrack. On any day the track management selects the Fabiola Derby will be run and the entire proceeds will be donated to the hospital fund. There was a large attendance of the lady managers and Mrs. President The chief business before the meeting was the consid- eration of Mr. Williams' offer to devote the use of the track and its em- Dloyes for the usual May day benefit. The matter had been laid over for a Week, so the ladies came prepared to record their decisions. They were prac- tically unanimous and decided to accept Mr. Williams' offer and thank him for his generosity.

Tisdale and Lanktree are making des- perate efforts to secure their re-election. County Clerk Frank C. Jordan, who iives in Oakland, has taken a hand in Mr. Lanktree's fight, and has issued over his own signature an appeal to the voters to “vindicate Lanktree and silence the detractors of our school system.” The citizens do not take *kindly to Mr. Jor- dan’s interference in the local campaign, and resolutions will be introduced at the first meeting of the campaign to-morrow night condemning his_action. he candidates for City Trustees have been left to shift for themselves. B. J. Smith, the independent candidate, who promises to conduct the city government without taxation, has taken advantage of the situation, jumped into the middle of the fight and ‘made himself a very for- midable factor in the contest. It {s known that the regular nominees for Trustees are knifing each other, and Smith, being the only independent candidate, is reap- ln% the benefit. he decision of the City Attorney that no one who registered or transferred sub- sequent to March 16 could vote at Mon- day’s election has disfranchised 108 citi- zens. Their names have been crossed off the supplemental registers. Among them is D. J. Sullivan, Superintendent of Schools. HEAVY TARIFF ON SIDEWALK CYCLING INCREASE FROM TWO TO FIVE DOLLARS. Abuse of tne Ordinance Has Resulted in Many Acidents to Chil- dren. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadway, April 7. The number of accidents that have happened to ladies and children through the carelessness of cyclists ha% resulted in increasing the bail for riding on the sidewalks from $2 to $. An ordinance has also been introduced in the City Council prohibiting all cy- clists from using the sidewalks at any hour of the night or day. These measures are of great interest to cyclists all around the bay, many of whom are in the habit of coming to Oakland during the summer and patronizing her boasted miles of side- walks. The existing ordinance makes it a misdemeanor not to dismount or turn out of the way of a foot passenger on the sidewalk or not to ring a bell at a cross- ing. The maximum fine for violating this ordinance has been $5, but the Police Judge has permitted police officers to collect bail of $2 and to allow the cyclist to_go on his way. This practice has failed to fnduce riders to obey the law and several women and childrén have recently been knocked down, and in some instances severely in- jured. Judge Smith has therefore issued an order that the maximum bail must be exacted In every case. he new ordinance, which, it is sald, | will certalnly be passed, prohibits any kind of wheel from being used on the sidewalks except invalids’ chairs and children’s toy wheels. It s claimed by friends of the measure that the streets of Oakland are now in such good condition that there is not the excuse for riding on the sidewalks that existed two years ago. —————— Police Raid Gambling Dens. OAKLAND, April 7.—The Police De- partment began to-night to carry out the idea of the new city administration. The start was made on the gambling houses and the most fashionable faro game in the Windsor Hotel was raided by Cap- tain Morrison, Sergeant Peterson and Of- ficer Henderson. The dealer, Rodgers, the players were ar- rested. All of the latter gave fictitious names and were released on bail. The ;i'i'nn;xhling furniture was taken to the City all. This is the first move toward reclaim- ing the city from being the “‘open town’ that it was under the old hdministration. —————— Fraternity House Entered. BERKELEY, April 7.—A thief entered the handsome ‘new chapter house of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity last night and succeeded in making away with a sum of money, together with other valua- bles. The fraternity house stands on the sorner of Durant and Telegraph avenues. It has offered an easy mark for burglars once or twice before. Last night's intruder managed to get into the upstairs apartments of the fra- ternity men, taking away all the wearing apparel in hight. This he searched for loose money, netting about $150. The clothes he threw away on leaving the premises. They were found this morning scattered about In the yard and in some of the adjacent lots. A tin box contalnin; gold and silver was broken open and $75 taken. No clew can be found to the per- petrator of the deed. The police are of the opinion that some one well acquainted with the interior of the house is responsi- ble. 8everal months ago a Chinese ser- vant did practically the same thing and was discharged, the goods stolen being recovered. e —ee———— Alameda News Note ALAMEDA, April 7.—Hon.

WARM CONTEST OVER A BOY WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS IS- SUED BY JUDGE OGDEN. Charles Reuter's Record of Matrimo- nial Troubles Will Be Aired -~ in the Superior Court. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 908 Broadw: April 7. Judge Ogden to-day issued a writ of | habeas corpus directed to Charles Reu- | ter, inspector for the Oakland Gas, Light | and Heat Company, commanding him to produce in court before next Monday his b-year-old son who, Mrs. Carrie M. Reu- | ter alleges, he abducted from her home | about two weeks ago. : Two years ago the principals were di-| vorced and Mrs. Reuter was given the custody of the child. In her petition for | the writ Mrs. Reuter alleges that SI"CQJ the abduction her ex-husband has Kkept | the boy at his residence, corner of Clay | and Fifteenth streets, where he is said to be llving with his third wife. She called there to see the boy, but was re- fused admittance, and has now had her | ex-husband cited to appear and show cause why he should not be punished for contempt of court. Mrs. Reuter was formerly Miss von Rowel. She was Reuter's second wife and obtained her divorce on the ground of ex- | treme cruelty. ““When I called on Attorney Lucas to bring suit for divorce,” said Mrs. Reuter to-day, “he refused to take the case, and my ex-husband’s brother told me after- | ward that he .refused because he had se- cured a divorce for Reuter under the | name of Charles J. Richards. That divorce was granted on December 31, 1892, just a | week prior to my marriage. The woman’s name was Maud A. Malone and he lived with her but six months. I secured m: divorce from him on May 26, 1897, and the following October he married a young lwo'm,"'n employed at that time at Kel- er's. Reuter is 27 years of age. He first mar- | rlied at 18 and his first wife w the daughter of a Buckeley vash., saloon- keeper. At 20 years of age he took his second wife and at 25 his third. He declares that his ex-wife is not a proper person to have charge of his son, though he makes no effort to securefllhfl little daughter, still in the care of Mrs. Reuter. The latter says Reuter had her sign a paper not long since that contains a statement to the effect that ‘“no bad company must be kept by the mother." She says he now holds this over her head. Reuter, however, has proved nothing against the mother's character so far. He | has tried to settle his affairs in regard to the boy outside of court because he feared publicity. He denies that he ever went under an assumed name and lays great weight upon the document his ex- wife signed. The matter will be aired in Judge Og- den’s court next Monday and promises to be replete with sensation. Left Much to Charity. OAKLAND, April 7.—A petition for the | final distribution of the estate of the late Mrs. Maria Martin has been filed. Under the terms of the will the estate, valued at $117,224 9, is to be distributed largely among relatives in England and Scotland. About $5000 goes to charitable institutions. After all bequests have been paid - the residue is to be divided among the San Francisco Children’s Hospital, and Fabi- ola Hospital and Ladies’ Relief Society of this city. The Unitarian church of this city is also to receive $2000.

Cash and Trophies Offered by the Kennel Club. The San Francisco Kennel Club has is- sued its premium list, and silver cups are strewed profusely through the pages. The man who owns a good dog nowadays has a “good thing” when such rewards are offered for its possession as are displayed in the pages of the premium list. And these special prizes are only a tithe of what will be distributed at the close of the show, for many of the regular donors of cups and medals reside in the East and the announcement of their offers has not yet reached the bench show committee. To the professional dog-handlers the club offers for competition the total cash amount of $0. This will doubtiess serve to stimulate the professionals to exert their efforts to procure entries. In every class the regular prizes are either medals or money. In addition to these prizes the following specials are offered: For mastiffs a loving cup is offered, be- sides medals, and a long string of Pacific N‘Ials)tm Club trophies for members of that club. Great Danes are favored by the first vice president with a silver and cut-glass loving cup and medals. St. Bernards receive the president's trophy, a silver loving cup. Besides this, old and silver medals are offered by the {ennel Club and for the members of the St. Bernard Club. The latter club offers more medals and some valuable cups. For Newfoundlands the Baltimore Ken- nel Association offers the club medal. The San Francisco Kennel Club offers the club medal for deerhounds, gold and silver medals for greyhounds and fox- hounds, wolfhounds (Borzois), blood- hounds and Chesa% ake Bay dogs. For pointers W. 8. Tevis offers a silver cup, and the Kennel Club offers medals. For English setters the specials are the Verona Kennels’ silver and cut-glass yase and Clabrough-Golcher's caraffe of the game material. In addition the Kennel Club’s special medals. Irish setters receive a silver and cut- glass tobacco jar from E. T. Allen, and rlfl% and silver medals from the Kennel ub, Gordon setters are offered the Kennel Club’s medals. The field trial class will compete for a silver cup offered by the Pacific Coast Field Trials Association and for the Ken- nel Club's gold and silver medals. Irish water and field spaniels will com- pete for the Kennel Club’s special club medals. Cocker spaniels should be entered in large numbers, for the variety and value of the specials are enormous. F. P. But- ler offers a $100 oil painting of the winner. Shreve & Co. offer a cut-glass cigarette jar, the Kennel Club offers medals, and the Oakland kennels offer a cut-glass and sllver pitcher. Collies_emulate the cockers in the ex- tent and value of specials. The Palace Hotel offers a silver and cut-glass loving cup; Henry J. Crocker, second vice presi- dent, offers a silver 'pitcher; the San Francisco Kennel Cl\|h offers the special club medals, and the California Collie glub offers its medals for its own mem- ers. Dalmatians, poodles, bulldogs, Boston, Irish and Skye terriers, Japanese spaniels, dachshunds, pugs and toy terriers all re- celve the San Francisco Kennel Club's special medals in addition to the regular prizes. Yorkshire terriers will compete also for a silver beaker. For bull terriers the Phemeria Cocker Kennels offer a Lenox and silver pitcher, and the Kennel Club offers its special medals, A unique feature of the show will be a parade of greyhounds in training, that will compete for silver cups, A carload of dogs from the Eastern cir- cuit is_expected to arrive here! The en- tries of these dogs for competition are al- ready on the way. It is safe to assert that the total of entries will surpass last year by 50 per cent, and judging from the number that have already been filed it is not extravagant to expect a doubling of the number. The applications for pre- mium lists have been so far in excess of | the anticipation that a second edition has been necessitated. A feature of the show will be the auc- tion sale of dogs on the last day. ———————— HOTEL ARRIVALS. PALACE HOTEL.
